Other Financing Options

In addition to scholarships and need-based aid, there are other options for financing an Agnes Scott education. These programs are designed to help a student’s family manage their resources in ways that will enable them to make their expected family contribution toward college costs.

Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS)

Parents (and stepparents) of dependent undergraduate students attending school at least half-time are eligible to apply for a Federal PLUS loan. Borrowers must be U.S. citizens or eligible noncitizens. Loan approval is subject to the credit criteria established by the U.S. Department of Education. Submitting the FAFSA is required before a PLUS application may be processed. The interest rate for the PLUS loan is 7.59% for 2018-2019, and parents can borrow up to the student's cost of attendance less other financial assistance.

Private, credit-based student loan

A private, credit-based alternative loan may be available to students who need funding for remaining college costs. There are various lenders for student borrowers which require no payments while the student remains in school. Private loans have various options for repayment and may offer forbearance and deferral options. In addition, interest rates for private loans are based on credit and set by the lender. These loans are more expensive than federally guaranteed loans and should only be used when all other options are exhausted. Alternative loans are typically in the student's name and usually require a cosigner.
